New Product : Mini 4 Pro Wet Suits !

The (sometimes arrogant) skeptics always amuse me... They're coming across this product for the first time, and know nothing.

@Phantomrain.org has been doing this for years going back to the Phantoms, has tested all sorts of solutions, learned what has to be protected, and has an excellent reputation.

I'm not a customer (sorry bud 🙂). But I know good engineering and engineering practices when I see it. Ignorance, on the other hand, can be quite amusing. 🤣

We have found that most people our aware that the Mini 3 and Mini 4 series drones are the Weakest drones to fly in the Rain without a Wet Suit .

Weak Links of the Mini 3 and Mini 4 when flying in the Rain.


The Sensors burning out from Water getting to the Main Board from behind the camera.
Battery Disconnecting from the Controller causing a Crash
The power button being compromised, along with the Battery.

How does the wetsuit prevent water from entering the interior of the drone though the openings behind the camera?

My question.
Being made of neoprene, will it help the drone float in the case of an unintended water landing?
 
I posted this on the Mavic 3 Wet Suits but it also applies to how we designed the Wet Suit for the Mini 3 an Mini 4 Wet Suits , by using the Redirection of Air Flow but keeping the Rain out. Just perfect representation

It's a serious question that remains unanswered - How do you keep rain out without blocking airflow necessary for cooling through the large openings behind the gimbal?

A frivolous answer doesn't inspire confidence in the effectiveness of the "redirection of airflow" claim.

To Test the Drones :

We fully submerge all the drones under water and reverse engineer what is needed.
We block off all the Vents on the first few flight and find out what is critically needed.

With the Mini 3/4 its the back vents not the gimbal that critical for air flow, more than the front gimbal area behind the camera.

The mini 3 and min 4 Wet Suits come with Gimbal Inserts

There made with of both Open and closed Neoprene that go directly behind the camara .

This making it much harder for rain to get in and also allowing some air flow.. The Gimbal inserts only fit into place when its raining but stay on the drone at all times as part of the design of the Wet Suit.

So the Mini 3 and Mini 4 pro are the Weakest of all the Drone in the Rain and Snow as there very quick to burn out the Sensors in the Rain. There also very quick to have the Battery Compromised as well.

If your going to fly your Mini 3 or Mini 4 Pro in the Snow or Rain , we recommend you get a Wet Suit as it adds the Critical elements need to fly in the rain and the Phantomrain Wet Suits do that very easily.
